“For the families that have kids, I can’t imagine personally not being able to do gifts at Christmas time when it’s supposed to be such a happy time for everybody and it’s not. It’s not something I would want anybody to experience. So, the fact that we can help folks and that we have a community that will come together and help us do that, I think is the most important part and is why we make sure that we’re able to do it each year.” – News-Press (Missouri), November 10, 2022
